When the ball on a spring is replaced by a smaller ball with half the mass : The period decrease by 29%

<h3>Calculate the Period </h3>

We will apply the formula below to calculate period

T = $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k } }$

where :

T₁ / T₂ = $\sqrt{\frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} } }$ where m₂ = m₁ / 2

Therefore :

T₂ = $\frac{T_{1} }{\sqrt{2} }$ = 0.71 T

Hence we can conclude that the period will decrease by 29% ( i.e 100 - 71 ).

Explanation:

The velocity is 340, but the distance is not. Here's how you do this:

You need to find out the velocity of the that sound in that temp which has a formula of

v = 331.5 + .606T where T is the temp in Celcius. Filling in and using the correct number of sig dig:

v = 331.5 + .606(20) and

v = 331.5 + 10 and

v = 340 m/s. Now we need to use that in d = vt:

d = 340(2.00) so

d = 680 m

Show that linear S.H.M is projection of a U.C.M along any of its diameter

BigorU [14]

It shows that acceleration of particle M is directly proportional to its displacement and its direction is opposite to that of displament. Thus particle M performs simple harmonic motion but M is projection of particle performing U.C.M. hence S.H.M. is projection of U.C.M. along a diameter, of circle.

The electric field in a region of space has the components Ey = Ez = 0 and Ex = (4.00 N/C · m) x. Point A is on the y axis at y

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

$V_{b}-V_{a} = -38.72$

Explanation:

Consider the axis diagram attached.

Given:

Ey = Ez = 0

Eₓ = - 4x N/C · m

Since electric field is in x direction, potential difference would be:

$V_{b} - V_{a} =-\int\limits^{4.40}_{0} {E_{x} } \, dx$

Here we integrate between limits 0 and 4.40 which is distance between A and B along x-axis.

$V_{b} - V_{a} = -4 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{x^{2} }{2} \end{array}\right]^{4.40}_{0}$

$V_{b}-V_{a} = -4 (9.68)\\V_{b}-V_{a} = -38.72$

14. A block rests on a frictionless table on Earth. After a 20-N horizontal force is applied to the block, it accelerates at 3.9

joja [24]

<span>14. Let's find mass. We know that F = m*a, so m = F/a.m = 20/3,9 m/s^2 = 5,12 kg;We already know the mass, so acceleration will be a = F/m;a = 10/5,12 = 2,0 m/s^2 (approximately);Answer: E.
15. According to the picture given above, let's define all components:These are refer to y: $985N sin(31)= 507;788N cos(32)= 668;411N sin(53)=-328;$
And these are refer to x: $985N cos(31)= 844 788N sin(32)= -417 411N cos(53)= -247$
And finally let's calculate tan: $tan^-1 (507/844)= 30,98; tan^-1 (668/-417)= -58,02; tan^-1 (-328/-247)= 53,01$
According to these calculations we've got: Sum Fx = 179,4 and Sum Fy = 847. Then let's count magnitude: $Fsum = rad 179^2 + 847^2 = 865$
Then we've got [tex]cos^-1 (179/865) = 77.7 (approximately).
So the most approximate answer is C. 866 N at 78.1° counterclockwise to the x-axis.
16. I think that this question is incomplete because there wasn't mentioned in what end of the chain the tension should be calculated. Anyway I'll help you with both bottom and top ends. We will use the basic formula W=m*g; W(bottom) = 175*9.8 = 1715 N; W(top) = (175+12)*9.8 = 1833 N; So you should choose between B. 1830 N or D. 1720 N. But I think the most possible answer is B.
17. I am definitely sure that A diagram generates the most tension in one chain. So the answer is C. The box is held by 1 chain and have all its weight.
18. I think that each planet would move in a straight line at constant speed, because there will be a zero gravity condition and there won't any impact on the planets.
19. According to the Work-Energy Theorem we have:1/2*1200*2^2 = 2400 (J);Then let's count the average force according to the formula: Work = F*D where D is displacement.F = 2400/ 0.15 = 16000 (N)
So the answer is B. 1.6 × 10^4 N
20. If my memory serves me well, magnetism is the force that can act through empty space. It's one aspect of the combined electromagnetic force. So the answer is A.
21. According to the illustration given above, I think we should use formula F = m*g; Let's count m. m = 5 kg - 0,6 kg = 4,4 kg; Then we have everything to count force:F = 4,4 * 9,8 = 43,1 N. So the most approximate answer is D. 43 N.
22. I am definitely sure that the answer is C. on Earth at sea level. Because weight has the formula W=mg. And on the earth surface the magnitude of g is higher that everywhere so the greatest weight is on Earth at sea level.
23. We have everything to calculate the acceleration. According to Newton's second law, the formula is a = F/m;a = 20/40 = 0,5 m/s^2; So the answer is A.
24. According to the definition of action reaction forces, the answer should be: A. The forces are opposite in direction, with the force on the ball much stronger in magnitude.
25. I am pretty sure that we should use Newton’s second law of motion F = m*a. First we should find mass, using formula W=m*g => m = W/g => m = 2400/9.8= 245 kg. Then we can find F.F = m*a;F = 245*12 = 2940 N; Answer: B
